The configuration file for DOS systems. Whenever a DOS computerboots up, it reads the CONFIG.SYS file (if it exists) and executes anycommands in it. The most common commands are BUFFERS= andFILES=, which enable you to specify the buffer size and the number of files that can be open simultaneously. In addition, you can enter commands that install drivers for devices.
